Be the boss of your menopause symptoms
A NEW non-hormonal supplement designed to assist women in managing symptoms associated with menopause has just been launched in the Philippine market. Branded as Femarelle, it is distributed by DKSH Market Expansion Services Philippines Inc.
Entering menopause can be uncomfortable for many women. Some may not even realize they’re experiencing symptoms associated with it, nor are they aware that there are nonhormonal options available to help alleviate their discomfort.
Femarelle is designed to provide support throughout every stage of the menopause journey, addressing specific needs and promoting healthy aging.
A natural stage in a woman’s life, menopause, typically occurs between the ages of 44 and 55, though some may experience symptoms as early as age 30. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), women aged 50 and above comprise 26 percent of all women and girls globally.
The transition to perimenopause brings significant changes, affecting physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being. Symptoms vary, with some women experiencing mild discomfort while others face severe symptoms that disrupt daily life. Some women may continue to experience symptoms long after menopause.
Symptoms can include mood swings, weight gain, night sweats, sleep disturbances, hot flashes, decreased libido, and vaginal dryness, all linked to declining estrogen levels.
It’s crucial to recognize menopause as another life stage, similar to puberty, with estrogen decline impacting a woman’s health as she ages. However, social taboos or denial often lead women to ignore symptoms and avoid seeking medical advice despite experiencing significant discomfort.
Proper perimenopausal care is essential for promoting healthy aging and ensuring a good quality of life.
As a non-hormonal intervention, Femarelle contains soya extract DT56a, derived from soybeans, which selectively manages symptoms related to hormonal changes during menopause without affecting sensitive tissues or adding risk factors. Clinically proven safe and effective in numerous studies, it is accepted by doctors and gynecologists globally as a favorable treatment option for menopausal women.
The Femarelle product line includes three variants targeting common menopausal symptoms. Femarelle Rejuvenate supports women in their 40s experiencing hormonal changes, offering better mood control, improved sleep, increased energy, and enhanced skin elasticity.
Femarelle Recharge provides swift relief from hot flashes and night sweats for women in their 50s experiencing menopause. It also improves sexual quality of life and mood and anxiety control.
Femarelle Unstoppable targets post-menopausal women, enhancing energy levels and bone and vaginal health and promoting better sleep.
Each pack of Femarelle contains 56 capsules, divided into four sheets of 14 capsules, providing a week’s supply. It should be taken twice daily, in the morning and evening, with or without food. It is available over-the-counter at leading drugstores today.
